People from Great Britain brought the English language to North America in the 16th and 17

People from Great Britain brought the English language to North America in the 16th and 17th centuries. And in the 36 300 years, there were so many _37 in both places that now people can easily _38 an English person from an American in the _39 he or she talks.
Many old words _40 in England but were kept in America．For example,300 years ago people in Great Britain got their water from something they 41 either a“faucet”,“spigot”,or a“tap”.All these words are _42 heard in different parts of America, but only “tap”is still _43_ in England．Americans often make _44 new words or change old ones. “Corn”is one kind of plant in America and 45 in England．
Also, over the last three centuries the English language has _46 thousands of new words for things that weren’t _47 before. And often, American and English people used two 48 names for them. A tin can is called“tin”for short in English, but a “can”in America．The word “radio”is 49 all over the world, including America．But many English people call it a “wireless”.And almost anything _50 something to do with cars, railroads, etc．has different _51 in British and American English.
But now American and British English may be _52 closer together. One thing is that 53_ people can hear a large amount of American speech daily in _54 , on television, or from travelers. Because of this, Americans _55 to be influencing the British more and more. So some day, English may even be the same on both sides of the Atlantic．
